Rotary - Automatic - AS1902/03 - Lifelong Service
Few people can say that something they own has given them 30+ years of good service but this little gem had done just that !
After a lifetime of service this little Rotary was retired to a death by desk draw, luckily i have a special place in my heart for Rotary's and decided to give it one more surgery to get it back into active service. The movement was still running but required a good clean and service, the casing had seen some considerable wear but polished up well considering the original condition. The strap had definitely seen its last wrist and has been replaced with some nice black leather :)
Below is the original condition >

After a service, polish up, new glass, and a new strap, shes back in action and looking not too bad :)
